What is Photosynthesis
(Sunlight and chlorophyll)
C02 + H20------------------- C6H1206 + 02
Carbon dioxide + water makes glucose + oxygen

Where does it take place?
Chloroplasts in leaves

Assignment
• Fold a piece of paper into thirds
• Draw and color a LEAF (See Figure 23-18, pg. 596). Label the veins.
• Draw and color the LEAF CROSS SECTION on pg. 596.
• Label the spongy mesophyll, guard cells, cuticle, upper epidermis, palisade mesophyll, xylem, phloem, vein, lower epidermis, stoma.
• Draw and color the CHLOROPLAST on pg. 208.
• Label the stroma, granum, thylakoids.
• It should look like this:
